  • Fantastic and really innovative things with voices were done by Jean Michel Jarre on his album Zoolook. He used samples in a way that makes modern sample-using childish.

  • What if the only things Vincent van Gogh painted were self portraits? That's what singers do with their songs if they inject too much of their personality into it. After a while it just gets boring.

  • The instrument in question is the Roland VP-550, and it's been around for several years. Its function is halfway between a vocoder and an autotuner; you sing or speak into a microphone (or other external input) connected to the instrument, then play notes on a standard synth keyboard. The vocals are pitch-changed to match the keys, and used to "color" synthesized voices and strings. Search on "Roland VP-550" for some demos if you're curious.

    I have one of these. Good fun.

  • Heh. Brian Eno forecasts a fad that's going to plague pop music in the next four years after this video was put out.

  • @kaligula11 lol shutup

  • @redchant you decide

  • 1:08 is that a fly or did someone fart

  • Doesn't autotune make all voices sound like robots rather than angels?

  • @nicohhog, well, but Cher is a commercial puppet and a joke. Eno is an artist. BIg difference. I think how she used it and how he used it are very different things.

  • @dantedraco wowwwwwwwww, hope you're trollin!
